2024 Montpellier Open ATP Entry List - Auger-Aliassime, Musetti, Murray & more

| by Nurein Ahmed

The 37th edition of the Montpellier Open, commonly known as Open Sud de France, will be played immediately after the conclusion of the first Grand Slam of 2024.

This ATP 250 tournament will run from January 29th to February 4th, consisting of a 28-player singles draw. The event will be played exclusively at Sud de France Arena, which is an indoor setting in the Montpellier suburb of Perols that houses almost 7,500 fans.

Some of the most iconic names in men's tennis have won this tournament in the past, including Yannick Noah, Pete Sampras, Yevgeny Kafelnikov, and Andy Roddick - all of whom have won a Grand Slam.

The tournament organizers have done their best to bring a pool of richly talented players despite the limiting factor around a very constrained schedule in which most top players will have been competing in the final stages of the 2024 Australian Open.

Six of the top eight seeds are ranked in the world's Top 50, including players such as Lorenzo Musetti (top seed), Alexander Bublik (former champion), Borna Coric, and Andy Murray. Even Felix Auger-Aliassmie - who endured a disjointed campaign in 2023, is making a pitstop.

The defending champion is Jannik Sinner, but the Italian has chosen not to play in this tournament unless he takes a wild card. But a pair of French veterans feature, both of whom have won in Montpellier.

Three-time winner Gael Monfils is joined by Richard Gasquet, the most decorated champion of this tournament, who has won it a record four times. British lefty Jack Draper is one of the most exciting names in the lineup and is seeded a high of seventh.

Four players will join from qualifying in the weekend preceding main draw action, while three players will be granted wild cards. Two players will also qualify through the special exemption rule, and one spot will open up for a late entrant. Be sure to check out the complete entry list below.
